Don’t die before achieving something.

Sep 10 - 2024
 
Everyone wants to achieve something before they die.
Let's use this as a starting point. What gets in the way? Answer this question, and you might find your next startup idea.
Here are the problems most of us face:

We don't know what to achieve.

  • How can we choose something that resonates deeply?
  • How can we choose something with positive—ideally large—impact?
  • How can we tell if something will be useful?
  • How can we help people be creative and find novel ideas?

We don't know how to achieve what we want.

  • How can we know what to learn, read, or listen to?
  • How can we read better? Listen to podcasts better? Learn from all sources?
  • How can we learn faster?
  • How can we get help?

We need superpowers to achieve what we want.

  • How can we think deeply, organize thoughts, and build a strong mental model?
  • How can we memorize more and remember what matters?
  • How can we write better?
  • How can we communicate better?
  • How can we work better with others?
  • How can we find time for everything, get organized, and stay focused?

We need a productive digital environment.

  • How can we stay well-informed despite SEO, spam, propaganda, and bots?
  • How can we benefit from social media without being brainwashed or addicted?
  • How can we protect ourselves against trolls and bullies?
 
If you're looking for a startup idea, answering one of these questions could be a good starting point. Of course, empowering individuals to reach their goals is just one small part of all possible business ideas. Pick something that inspires you—and can inspire others.
